Aquatic fitness is defined as activities performed in the water that promote and enhance physical and mental fitness. There are numerous applications to appeal to wide variety of participants. Not only is it ideal for elderly and pregnant women, anyone with a reasonable level of fitness can achieve great improvements in their health, with the help of aqua aerobics. It is especially beneficial for those who suffer from knee, back or other joint problems.

This immensely enjoyable form of exercise makes creative use of the natural resistance and buoyancy of water to provide a low-impact work-out that is both fun and effective. It is suitable for all ages and different levels of fitness. Aqua fitness work-outs aim to improve all the components of fitness: muscular endurance and strength, body composition, aerobic capacity, and flexibility or joint mobility, as well as improving neuromuscular coordination.

Our program is designed for non‐swimmers and swimmers alike. The program is ideal for individuals who want to reduce the amount of stress placed on joints or for those who are interested in cross‐training options from land based activities.
